How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Kent Street
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Kent Street?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Can you do the toilet too?

What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Advice
Common problems we fix in Kent Street
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to look after the finish
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Kent Street. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kent Street use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
